Prospero and Ariel  played by Robert and Mengye  - wonderful connection and playfulness. 

    * Prospero. Hast thou, spirit, Perform'd to point the tempest that I bade thee? 
    * Ariel. To every article.
      I boarded the king's ship; now on the beak, 315
      Now in the waist, the deck, in every cabin,
      I flamed amazement: sometime I'ld divide,
      And burn in many places; on the topmast,
      The yards and bowsprit, would I flame distinctly,
      Then meet and join. Jove's lightnings, the precursors 320
      O' the dreadful thunder-claps, more momentary
      And sight-outrunning were not; the fire and cracks
      Of sulphurous roaring the most mighty Neptune
      Seem to besiege and make his bold waves tremble,
      Yea, his dread trident shake. 325

    * Prospero. My brave spirit!
      Who was so firm, so constant, that this coil
      Would not infect his reason?
